Always use crypto_has_comp() so that crypto can lookup module, call
usermodhelper to load the modules, wait for usermodhelper to finish and so
on.  Otherwise crypto will do all of these steps under CPU hot-plug lock
and this looks like too much stuff to handle under the CPU hot-plug lock. 
Besides this can end up in a deadlock when usermodhelper triggers a code
path that attempts to lock the CPU hot-plug lock, that zram already holds.

An example of such deadlock:

- path A. zram grabs CPU hot-plug lock, execs /sbin/modprobe from crypto
  and waits for modprobe to finish
